âLifting Horizons: Anne Elizabeth Jerome Spencer, a biographyâ is a book about the remarkable life of the founder of New Zealand Womenâs Institutes, written by EIT Research Professor Kay Morris Matthews.
The book chronicles the life of the founder of the New Zealand Womenâs Institutes, Jerome Spencer, known as Bessie to her friends and family.
The book, which took three years to research and write, touches on all aspects of a woman ahead of her time.
Born into privilege in 1872, Bessie was the daughter of Dr William Spencer, the original doctor and surgeon of Napier, who also served as the cityâs mayor. She was a foundation year pupil at Napier Girlsâ High School. The first local woman to gain a university degree, she taught at the school and was 29 years of age when she became headmistress, leading Napier Girlsâ from 1901 to 1909.
